Typical spam. I delete all spam without opening. I can always tell by the subject and delete it quickly. I probably got the same one.

Spam bots can pick up addresses anywhere. The spam emails always lie about how they get addresses. For all we know, a bot picked it up from here. Not too much we can do about spam.

I doubt the email address was harvested from here, as the addresses are usually tucked away in member profiles. More likely it was harvested from either registrant information or the website itself.

Someone may want to delete their URL so as not to help out their spammy a$$e$.
